  1. She’s pretty! I recommend getting hold of “Bitter Apple” and spraying it on all your precious wooden furniture and anything else you want to save. I don’t recommend it for your long-suffering lab, though… 🙂

  2. Best thing for teething cut her some hazel branches say half inch diameter into 8″ lengths, let her strip the bark and then substitute a new one. I think they must have some chemical akin to willow with a slightly analgesic quality. Works a charm for keeping them off the chair legs.
    Why is she wearing that weird garment? Looks poofy!

  3. An e-mail from my nephew who grew up with a string of them owned by my brother – very perceptive.
    The harness may look poofy, but it is the one way of catching and holding her without hurting her.

    Ah ha – the infamous Jack Russell gearbox, gives so much character…but, there’s also the overdrive setting which results in crazy handling at high speed – best demonstrated on wooden and stone flooring – then there’s something that can be altered in the suspension too, this leads to amazing vertical bounce and recoil ;-).
